Expert groomer Cassie McGlone knows how to handle even the feistiest of felines, but their owners are a different tale! But when an elderly woman is murdered in the night and suspicion falls on not only her husband but their cats as well, it's up to Cassie to solve the case before fur really starts to fly in this fifth Cat Groomer Mystery by Eileen Watkins!
Around the quaint town of Chadwick, New Jersey, are two families in need of Cassie's help. Wealthy perfectionist Gillian Foster is orchestrating the restoration of her family's nineteenth century home and wants her purebred Himalayan, Leya, boarded at Cassie's Comfy Cats. Meanwhile, the elderly Tillmans are in dire straits, hoarding possessions and a clowder of cats in their run-down house. Perhaps Cassie can persuade the couple to surrender a few of their furry friends. Unfortunately, neither task is cut and dried...
Mrs. Tillman is mysteriously asphyxiated in the night, and suspicion falls on her husband—and their cats. Meanwhile, the Fosters host a banquet for the local historical society, and when one of their guests falls gravely Gillian is convinced someone is out to get her. After a second death occurs, it's clear a killer isn't pussyfooting around. Now it's up to Cassie to get these houses in order before disaster pounces again...
